How To Make pudding brittle

Step 1

Place margarine and corn syrup into large saucepan. Cook over moderate heat until margarine is melted, stirring occasionally. Stir in dry pudding mix, bring to full boil, stirring constantly. Continue cooking and stirring 1 minute. Remove from heat. Add cereal and peanuts to mixture; mix in thoroughly. Spread in thin layer on waxed paper or buttered baking sheet. Cool. Break into small bite size pieces to serve as a candy treat.

Step 2

To store: Place in container and cover lightly. Make up your own flavors- just change the pudding mix flavor- JUST MAKE sure you use the kind of pudding mix you cook, NOT INSTANT.
